...Ee L. Lim; Kieren G. Hollingsworth; Fiona E. Smith; Peter E. Thelwall; Roy Taylor Suppression of lipolysis by acipimox is known to improve insulin-stimulated glucose disposal, and this is an important phenomenon. The mechanism has been assumed to be an enhancement of glucose storage as glycogen...

...Robert Hägerkvist; Leif Jansson; Nils Welsh The aim of the present study was to investigate whether imatinib affects insulin sensitivity and glucose disposal in HF (high-fat)-fed rats. Sprague–Dawley rats were fed either a standard pelleted rat food (low-fat diet) or an HF diet (60% fat) for 8...

Our results show an increase in insulin-mediated glucose disposal during euglycaemic clamp conditions that was significantly higher following the high-salt diet compared with the low-salt diet (7.41±0.41 compared with 6.11±0.40 mg·kg −1 of body weight·min −1 respectively; P =0.03...
